Instructions for setting up NYSL locations

1. Review the IAC IP Authorization Request form; note the Region. Formulate a location ID based on the region. Each location ID begins with 'nysl_' and the region code, followed by a unique string.

Region LocationID
Capital nysl_ca
Central nysl_ce
Long Island nysl_li
Metro nysl_me
North Country nysl_nc
Rochester nysl_ro
South Central nysl_sc
South Eastern nysl_se
Western nysl_we

2. Write the location code on the Authorization Request, then create a location record

a. retrieve the generic location record for that region using the locationIDs shown above
b. modify the location ID and add the data from the Authorization Request -- do not modify the Logo Text field
c. use <ctrl>-R, Add to add the location field

3. Add the IP address listed on the Authorization Request into the appropriate Library Record's IP registry.

Region LibraryID
Capital nysl_ca
Central nysl_ce
Long Island nysl_li
Metro nysl_me
North Country nysl_nc
Rochester nysl_ro
South Central nysl_sc
South Eastern nysl_se
Western nysl_we

If the Authorization Request does not contain an IP address list, or indicates the name of a Dial-up Access Provider, create a Remote Patron Profile record using the locationID created in step 2 above. All NYSL dialup (RPP) profiles should use the same password (empirelink) and cache life (365):

Location ID:<locationID>
Method:D
Host:NA
Port: -1
Description:empirelink
RP Cache life (in days):365___

Example: Region == Rochester
Library == Roberts Wesleyan College

Retrieve the Rochester region generic location record, using locationID 'nysl_ro'. Modify the location ID, e.g., 'nysl_ro_rwc'

Fill in the rest of the location data (do not modify the Logo Text or Web URL fields, or the product list) using data in the Authorization Request

Use <ctrl>-R | Add to add the location record

Location record template: wsl_main

Authorization
Use IP if available; otherwise, include a dialup profile

Method:        Dialup
Password:     evergreen
Life:             365

ACP:
No special requirements (citynnnnn format okay)

Databases

GaleNet:  Assoc Unlimited (U.S. National, Regional, State, and Local, and IRS Data on Nonprofits)
CA/CLC/DLB (except Pierce County: LRC)
BRC (25 users; create a single account for all WSL participants for this product only)

Remote Access
RPA should be negotiated with each library independently; attempts should be made in each case to implement RPA using locally operated CGI scripts. If libraries are unable to to do so, fail over will occur in the following order:
